E1 Pro

I bought wireless Reolink cameras (E1 Zoom, TrackFlex), as it'd be cost prohibitive to drag PoE. It's a bloody mess with Frigate. There are all sorts of encoding issues and I'm having to do software re-encoding for it to work. Also, the Frigate-based autotrack doesn't work. The cameras themselves ar

First of all OP, you must understand that you are not getting anything reliable that's Wi-Fi. You will have issues from time to time, it doesn't matter if you have NASA internet or super Wi-Fi. You will have issues. Only with a PoE camera you wouldn't have issues, but I assume you can't do this beca

C230 is low end cheap camera and you are saying it's the best they have the C250 and C260 which are the new recent models and you are comparing to reolink models that cost 200+, even the E1 pro costs 50 are you using the app on other phones with the same account? I never had that kind of problem onl

The reasoning behind the Tapo C120 was their invisible IR emitters and very small form factor eith magnetic mount. Image quality is nothing to write home about. I previously used a reolink E1 Pro and that had much better image quality but the red glow from the IR emitters were very apparent in a dar

So I have 5 cameras and a NVR (Network Video Recorder, essentially a 2TB hard drive for the cameras). 4 of the cameras are hardwired to the NVR with POE ethernet and have pan and tilt autotracking, the doorbell uses WiFi and is stationary. I have about a week of 24x7 video storage in 4K and then eac

I have a Reolink E1 Zoom and like it. I used to have a Wyze, but Reolink has been better overall. Here's a video from the camera on my QT tank: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcCyE0Ol7Ug. The only issue is that during the day I need coral lenses (attached by a tape), but at night IR mode reflects o

What camera is it? It looks like my reolink e1 pro, but the base is different, but if it's just a different base that's a 4k camera.... And very high quality

E1 pro destroys the tapo in every single spec you can think of, especially if it is hardwired with ethernet the difference would be absurd. But if you are already plugging ethernet you might as well get a PoE camera instead, and that would be an absurd upgrade over any of those 2 options which are t

If you have power to the coop, you don't need wireless. You can an eternet over power like the TP-Link AV2000. It will be much more reliable than a wireless if you are pushing the limits of distance. I use a Reolink E1 Pro. It has PTZ so I can look around its 4k and the night vision is good.

Reolink and Frigate have been nightmares for me. The Reolink cameras seem to have broken frame sequencing, so I have to transcode my streams. I have them working, but only through a lot of grief (and my E1 Zooms only operate at 1440p). My NVR is running on a GMKtec M3 Ultra (Intel Core i7-12700H wit
